Andrew Gimson’s PMQs sketch: See the incredible rejuvenating effects of “Tory sleaze” on dejected Lefties

Johnson declined to look in the slightest bit abashed, and instead offered, as an inspiring example, the recapture of the Falkland Islands.

Emily Carver: So the European Super League has collapsed. But either way, it’s none of the Government’s business.

The lesson of this drama is that fans must make their voices heard, rather than Ministers threaten knee-jerk legislation.

By Emily Carver | 21 April 2021

Sarah Ingham: Greensill. Not so much “What does Jeremy think?” as “What on earth was Jeremy thinking?”

The rush towards Something Must Be Done should be paused. How about having a fresh look at ethics and values, as well as the concept of trust?

Nathen Allen: Starmer’s efforts to make Labour seem patriotic aren’t fooling anyone

For the lost Labour seats of the Red Wall, Labour is simply still the party of Britain-bashing and university Marxists.

Andrew Gimson’s PMQs sketch: “Tory sleaze” puts fresh heart into Starmer

Andrew Gimson’s Commons sketch: MPs find more to say about the Duke because he did not always play it safe

Iain Dale: Starmer’s grip on Labour is already loosening. Defeat in Hartlepool would be a disaster for him.

Plus: Don’t let the serialisation put you off Alan Duncan’s diaries – it’s the insights into being a Foreign Office minister that really shine.

What is the question to which vaccine passports are the answer?

The more you ponder the Commons arithmetic, the more you see why mass testing is likely to happen and why a state-run vaccine passport scheme is not.

By Paul Goodman | 6 April 2021

A year of Starmer. Why are his ratings going downhill? Lack of authenticity, inconsistency and missed opportunities.

Strangely, one of the few things that now unites voters across the Left and Right is a feeling he won’t win an election.

By Charlotte Gill | 1 April 2021

Richard Holden: This spring’s local elections. For levelling-up to work, we need local councils and leaders who back it.

The sad truth is that many local Labour councils and local bureaucracies don’t want it: they’re scared of it.

By Richard Holden MP | 29 March 2021

Andrew Gimson’s PMQs sketch: Davies wonders whether the Prime Minister is a Conservative

Starmer attacked Johnson for promising not to cut the size of the Army, yet now doing exactly that.

By Andrew Gimson | 24 March 2021

Don’t blame the police for failures to hold them accountable. To make streets safer, have more local control.

That there may be as many as three investigations into Saturday’s events on Clapham Common tells us much we need to know.

By Paul Goodman | 15 March 2021

Andrew Gimson’s PMQs sketch: Johnson wishes to remain in office for another ten or 20 years, so goes on the defensive
